About this app

Get rid of the unsolicited calls once forever. Safely and absolutely free.

Telemarketers, phone scams or „just“ unsolicited surveys? The Should I Answer app can get you rid of all such calls.

How does the app work?


Whenever some unknown number calls the app checks it in its permanently updated database - immediately, without internet connection. If it finds out that other users reported the respective number as nuisance, it warns you against it. Or if you want it so, it can block it directly, the caller will not be able to reach you.

It is just the database used by the Should I Answer app which is an absolute unique part. It is composed directly by the users of the app: after each unknown call the users can rate it anonymously either as safe or spam. After approval given by our admins the report is then visible in the database where all users can benefit from.

What the app can do?


• It can protect you effectively against the unsolicited calls. You can set the level of protection exactly according to your needs: from simple alert of unsolicited call to direct blocking.

• It can block even hidden, foreign or premium rate numbers. Also you can write your own lists of blocked or allowed numbers.

• The app can be used as fully functional dialer app: you will find all your Contacts, favourite Contacts and complete call history in it.

• The app can protect you even offline. If you need to update the local database it waits for your wi-fi connection.

• It’s simple, even your grandma can use it :-)


How does the app deal with your personal data?


Everything is happening directly in your phone, and in your phone only - your data is never by passed to some 3rd party. The app can’t „see“ even your own phone number, all reports are fully anonymous, the app doesn’t send even your Contacts anywhere.

EDIT: Newest Android doesn't allow this app to be set as default phone & thus the app doesn't work at all, no matter the settings. I waited 6 months hoping the devs would make adjustments so that it had functionality again but it seems they have no intentions of keeping up w/Android updates/permissions. I don't like that, so after this edit I am uninstalling what was once a 5-star app to me. I prefer apps with devs that care to keep up. I'm leaving the 5 stars to reflect how amazing it once was.

UPDATE: now the program is frequently crashing and keeps telling me the protection is not working. This has been happening for months and now, twice it has auto picked up phone calls for whatever reason. I just start hearing someone talking and it answered the phone and I wasn't even near it. I reinstalled and now lost my backed up blocked/allow lists and no option to register my backup code now. And no longer can pickup/hang up, only reject or disallow. Getting tired of this.

Since an update at some point the app no longer is listed as a default choice for phone. It is for Spam. So some features I used like it's call screen and pick up and hang up no longer work. I see no way to make it the default phone app. I have uninstalled, given all permissions, overlay etc etc.
